Miss E, I would have loved to talk to an org psychologist when I worked on Wall Street for 8 years. I never knew they existed til today. Lord knows back then I needed one!

Interesting Martell. I think stressed-out non-disabled frustrated people could benefit from talking to a psychology professional about work woes too (jmho)

A career counsellor is not what I want. I know what I want. What I wanna know is why I have hatred for co-workers who only want their job for the money not because they like the job. I know this will sound nuts to many people but nearly every job I had I ACTUALLY LIKED, sometimes liked a lot

Answer 1

Yes, except in America they are called Industrial/Orginizational Psychologists

No, I am a clinical psychologist.

Answer 2

The Occupational Therapists I have known work with disabled/ troubled people through different media such as clay, painting, different arts through which the person is able to get in touch with feelings and disconnect the worry, fear, guilt, etc., get in touch with buried anger, etc. Making these accessible sp? to verbal exploration! Has nothing to do with work occupations. (That is Career Counseling.)

Answer 3

I belive they do. I personaly have seen a Psychologist when i was in Out Patient for Hospital for Special Care in New Britain,Ct.

Answer 4

Yes, in many many factories they do have them. Also high pressure jobs like the stock market, etc.
No
